I've never been a good DL'er. My best DL is 390 lbs (power lifting belt only) a bunch of years ago. I've always been a better squatter. My best squat is 420 with a belt and best 20 rep squat set was with 285 lbs. I think this is a body type thing.
Even though DL is not a strength for me, I'd love to get a 400 lb DL as a goal.
Would Zercher Squats be appropriate to use in the PTTP template instead of DL? I'd like to try out 5 rep/ 3 rep/ 2 rep sets.
I could do them from the ground or from a power rack.
I always seem to tweak my back somewhere in my cycle when doing PTTP DL's.
